Awesome!! Yeah!
You tend to think of Jimmy Smith music as being organ dominated but this is another example of the great musicians that played with him, especially brass. This set includes trumpeter Lee Morgan, altoist Lou Donaldson, tenorman Tina Brooks, guitarist Kenny Burrell, drummer Art Blakey, and others. Great stuff.
